NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Talley Vineyards Estate Chardonnay is an opulent and vibrant white wine that presents an array of ripe fruit flavors.On the nose, there are aromas of ripe apple, pear and white peach, complemented by subtle notes of tropical fruits and creamy oak. On the palate, the wine is creamy and weighty, with a juicy mid-palate of tropical and stone fruits, and a long, lingering finish. The vibrant acidity and minerality of this Chardonnay ensures it will pair well with a variety of seafood dishes, while its complex fruit and oak flavors make it enjoyable on its own. An excellent expression of cool-climate Chardonnay.

ORIGINS

Winery: Talley Vineyards

Region: Central Coast California

The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States. The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.
